Participant Spotlight – Asia Haughton

Asia Haughton is 11 years old and a chapter participant at The Bridges at Spring Tree Golf Club. “My first try at golf was in January 2020 with the First Tee. I found the program to be interesting and strategic,” Asia. “However, COVID-19 got in the way. I eventually got my mom to sign me up in January 2021 after asking her many times when I could start playing golf. I have used the lessons taught learned from First Tee to guide me with good judgment, sportsmanship, integrity, perseverance, confidence, and honesty while practicing with my peers and daily. I will continue to push myself to improve the techniques taught to us by Coach Stefan. Coach Stefan has been very patient, encouraging, and motivational. He assesses our individual needs to improve on our golf techniques and stance. My experience has been terrific participating in the First Tee.”
